Red Hook, Brooklyn, JJ, Fort Defiance Cafe.

With Diver in the car seat looking back toward the Fort Greene section, Jessie drove the XC 90 over to Red Hook  to give old Poppy the grand tour of this enchating and myserious boro.  What that means to those who don't know me well is a meet-and-greet at the best local coffee shops -- where an afficionado de cafe meets the beans of his dreams.  In this snap, JJ leaves Fort Defiance on Dikeman and Van Brunt with a brace of iced lattes -- made all the more yummy with two fingers of half-and-half from the organic dairies of the Battenkill in Upstate New York.
